The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 407

Needless to say as for electrical.I believe you have a lot of plans, but I am willing to share with you my predictions for the upcoming second industrial revolution."

"The second industrial revolution?" Dennis?Fargo's eyes lit up after hearing this, "Okay! After listening to your passionate discussion, I know what to do! Don't worry! Wells Fargo will never delay the loan to this consortium enterprise!"

In addition to the second largest shareholder of Wells Fargo Bank, the Fargo family has many other industries. Dennis was aroused by Situ Nan’s words. Thinking of San Francisco, a mountain city with rich limestone and abundant energy, if you invest If you build a cement plant, you will definitely get good benefits.

He told Situ Nan of this idea, and Situ Nan readily agreed, and the two jointly invested US$2 million to build California's largest cement plant in San Francisco, each holding half of the shares, and also operating other building materials businesses.

Situ Nan and Dennis?After Wells Fargo discussed the future strategic investment direction of Wells Fargo Bank, he visited the Pacific Securities Exchange.

Although it is not as prosperous as Wall Street, the Pacific Stock Exchange, as the largest securities exchange on the West Coast of the United States, will surely develop prosperously in the future, and it will become the main source of financing for small and medium enterprises in the west.

Seeing the flow of people coming in and out, he felt that Wells Fargo's courage could be relaxed.

"Now the rich country's strategy has to make some changes. We will not only be a commercial bank, but also set up a securities investment department." Situ Nan instructed.

"Yeah." Dennis nodded.After discussing with them, they decided to establish Wells Fargo Financial Investment Company, which specializes in financial securities business, and merged Wells Fargo Financial Investment Company and Wells Fargo Bank into Wells Fargo Group....

Los Angeles Hollywood.

Two years after Situ Nan and the others left, Hollywood was a lot of fun.More and more film companies are opening, more and more people are participating in the film industry, and something new happens almost every day.

But this has nothing to do with Situ Nan.He just glanced at the Sunset Boulevard for a while, but it was a straight and spacious two-lane highway leading up to Beverly Hills, which made him feel relieved.

In the past two years, despite the violent strikes outside, the Hollywood Development Company has not caused much trouble. The conscientious Chinese construction workers not only built a lot of infrastructure in Hollywood, but also built Beverly Hills like a beautiful Large gardens, neat and clean, Victorian, Gothic, Modernist...all styles of buildings are constantly presented in front of Situ Nan along the road.

"Wow! The foot of the mountain has become so lively! It's so beautiful." Laura sighed looking at the scenery outside the window. Turning around, she looked at Situ Nan who was smiling, and she felt a little emotional: Two years passed in a flash. Andy, who is still in her baby, can now run.

"Home, home, home..." Little Andy said milkily, waving excitedly to the window.Situ Nan and Laura met and smiled, and there was a warm feeling in their hearts.

In the enviable eyes of passers-by, the car drove away, straight to the top of Beverly Mountain.It was a private estate, from the side of the Beverly Mountain, it was the domain of the William family, and it was also the home of the hidden rich man in Hollywood legend.

A thin old white man was waiting at the door and saw the car stop, and the cute figure of Little Andy got out of the car. He couldn't wait to hug Little Andy.

Little Andy immediately retracted into the car, a little curious, a little afraid of the old man who suddenly appeared.

"Damn, don't you remember Grandpa? Do you know how much I love you?" Andrew Mellon scowled, looking at the little Andy with round eyes a little angrily.

"Haha. Andy, that's grandpa, grandpa!" Situ Nan smiled.Put little Andy into Andrew's arms.

"Sorry, something was delayed in San Francisco." Situ Nan apologized to Andrew.

"Yeah." Andrew replied casually, ignoring Situ Nan, turned his head and glanced at Laura, nodded comfortably, and went straight into the door holding little Andy.

This old man is a bit dissatisfied with my "running away from home"!

Situ Nan smiled and touched his chin.See my brother-in-law Paul?Mellon stood aside and snickered, and Situ Nan went up to give him a hug."Hi! Paul, thank you for helping me look after the house."

"I'm very happy. The scenery here is beautiful, you can fly for a ride every day, ride horses, and have enthusiastic Hollywood girls. It's amazing." Paul laughed."Looking at how proud you are, it seems that this trip around the world is really good!"

Uh, this guy is still lip service, no change at all!"I will tell you later, there are some fun things." Situ Nan took Laura into the house.

As soon as Situ Nan entered, he heard Andrew's angry and angry voice, he looked a little embarrassed, and his hair, face, and chest were all wet.And little Andy was giggling.

"Oh, you bastard! You've broken your studies, dare to tease me?"

The Situ Nan couple couldn't help but laugh, it turned out that their son spilled all the urine on Andrew's body.

Situ Nan quickly greeted the servant and took Andrew to change his clothes."It's not over with you!" Andrew looked back and gave Little Andy angrily, then turned to a chrysanthemum-like old face and smiled again.

"What a naughty guy!" Situ Nan shook his head and squeezed Little Andy's face.

After sorting it out, Andrew came out buoyantly.The family gathered in the living room to listen to Situ Nan and his wife talk about the journey.When talking about surfing in Hawaii, Paul's eyes lit up, and after sneaking a glance at Andrew next to him, he immediately sat aside honestly.

Andrew is more interested in Shanghai."Listen to you, it's really comparable to New York?"

"That's the case to some extent, but it's only concentrated in a small part of the foreign concessions. The jurisdiction of the Chinese government is still relatively backward." Situ Nandao, then introduced the situation in Shanghai to Andrew.

"Listen to you, the investment environment there is pretty good?" Andrew asked with a smile.

Seeing that Weng and Son-in-law started to discuss business, Laura's sister and brother were not interested, and left with little Andy witty.

"It's okay. American businessmen can get a lot of markets under the banner of open door. The industry there is very backward, and they need all the products produced in the United States. But the best selling is munition oil."

Situ Nan sighed, "The situation there is a bit complicated. The British, French, Japanese, and Americans have their own powers. Warlords often fight with each other, and there are endless intrigues and intrigues."

Andrew nodded."I heard that your people have made a wealthy place there?" He looked at Situ Nan with piercing eyes.

"How do you care about this?" Situ Nan didn't deny it, but looked at Andrew a little strangely. Andrew knew a little about the affairs of the Communist Party, but he never asked.

"Not for the oil company? Don’t forget that the Gulf Oil Company has a lot of business in Sumatra. Your kid keeps craming people inside. Tens of thousands of Chinese workers have gone to the oil company. May I not care. ?"

Andrew smiled and took a meaningful look at Situ Nan. The Chinese workers he described as he went around the oil company did not know where they were assigned, and then a new group of workers came in.Most of them are engaged in physical engineering construction, so frequent personnel changes do not affect oilfield production.

"When are you ready, remember to let me know, I am now tied to the thief ship by you kid!"

"okay!"

Situ Nan nodded.

I also heard Andrew saying: "In the Pacific, Britain and Japan are allies. Although they may not renew the "Anglo-Japanese Alliance", the United States is at a disadvantage after all, and the Philippines is not safe. If the Philippines is dragged into the war, It's not worth it.

What are you doing?As long as it does not affect the Philippines, even if the White House knows some news, as long as it guarantees Sumatra's American interests, it will not care too much, but will be happy to see the troubles of the Dutch and the British.

Now Wall Street competes strongly with London, and a force leaning toward the United States is more acceptable than the Dutch."

"Yeah." After Situ Nan lifted up, he glanced at Andrew, who was calm, and didn't see any expression, but his words were a great encouragement to Situ Nan.Although these thoughts have appeared in Situ Nan's mind many times, it feels a lot heavier to be able to say it from a heavy population like Andrew.

"Don't worry! I guarantee that whether it is Occidental Petroleum, Gulf Oil Company or Mobil Petroleum, not only will not be damaged, but will also receive a wider range of oil benefits.

In addition to petroleum, other fields will be open to the United States. It is necessary to know how large a newly-born country is to realize industrialization, and its demand for technical equipment funds is huge, and a large number of orders will fall into the hands of American companies."

Situ Nan assured.He looked at Andrew firmly.He intends to invest part of the resources of the William Consortium in Nanyang in the future, and in fact it is also selling part of the industry in exchange for the industrialization of Nanyang.This will benefit other consortia a lot.

"No wonder he was willing to trade with you before he died? It turns out that you are all the same kind of people. But it seems that you are stronger than him and much luckier." Andrew gave Situ Nan a deep look.

Chapter 8 President Harding

"You all know?" Situ Nan didn't expect Andrew to hear the news shortly after he and Jacob Schiff reached a deal.But this is also a normal thing, after all, this thing can't be concealed from someone with a heart.

Jacob Schiff is dead, but the Kuhn Lobb Company, which he left behind, came out to reduce its 5% stake in the City Bank of New York, and everything remained the same.Rockefeller still controls the City Bank of New York. As the settlement center of Mobil Petroleum, the Emperor Morgan of Wall Street is still coveting the City Bank of New York silently. In the 20th century, the City Bank of New York was controlled by the Rockefeller and Morgan families in turn.

And Mr. Situ Nan, 5%, did not intend to continue to expand his influence, but now no one can ignore his existence.

After being silent for a while, Andrew suddenly said: "This time, I have something to ask you for help."

This made Situ Nan a little flattered."Huh?" Situ Nan looked at Andrew with some surprise, waiting for his next words.

"I am ready to let go of business and participate fully in political affairs. This time, I am canvassing votes on behalf of the Republican Party. I need California's vote." Andrew looked at Situ Nan with some expectation.
